Chronicling a dark age, the global ascent of authoritarians and autocrats. A Rubicon has been crossed in America and a dilettante Caesar is eyeing the Republic.

#Saakashvili, repudiated by fellow #Georgians, scorned by x-#Ukrainian allies, fancies himself as a new #Garibaldi. What's next? Liberate a CentralAsian republic? A Gulf Sheikhdom? A Canadian province? As for Ukraine, its politics become a sad farce. nyti.ms/2nwnqC8

Might the #Olympic ban give the #Russian people a pause --they may want to reflect on their govt's gross overreach --or would it simply revalidate their ancient sense of #victimhood? A regressive #Russia may be quitting the company of #civilized nations.

The last #moderate #Republican to have sought the #presidency. His 1980 quixotic campaign marked GOP's irreversible shift to the hard #right. #JohnAnderson Is Dead at 95. nyti.ms/2knNhex

#TimCook was there, to listen, nod&never disagree w/the #ideologue of #China's #PoliceState: Oh, how much we've enriched your coffers! Which is what the enforcers care about. Indeed, why would #Apple #CEO ever invoke #freedom in a speech intended to pander nyti.ms/2BGH8hK

Mr #Trump is openly assailing the #RuleOfLaw, bidding to discredit #LawEnforcement agencies. Is there an #endgame? Will he claim a #Bannonite #PopularMandate to overrule and dissolve the legal system? A #Thermidor always lurks around a #Republic's corner. nytimes.com/2017/12/03/us/…

In degenerate Western democracies presidents run neck-and-neck against rivals. In solid, healthy and moral #Russia the president runs breast-and-breast. Harass us, Volodya, they demand. And harass he will. Six more years. #Putin

World's greatest thief is a young man from Africa's poorest-richest-smallest country, #EquatorialGuinea, where people earn $2-a-day. Son and VP of the president, he steals on a scale hitherto unseen. Upon conviction in-absentia he posted #smiley #emoticons

What does #Pakistan really need to worry about? Poverty? Corruption? Terrorism? Spoiled environment? Water? Health? Education? Nope. The real concern is #blasphemy, and the real solution is even fewer #ReligiousFreedoms in this #theocracy-in-the-making. wsj.com/articles/drive…

Good old #Russian pathology is back, with holy zeal: the #Jews. Not only did "they" kill the #Romanovs, not only did they enjoy it, they did so on behalf of their #OldTestament God. #ProtocolsOfTheEldersOfZion reincarnated, courtesy #Holy Pravoslavyie. themoscowtimes.com/articles/consp…

A new #poll shows Americans most committed to #Trump are the deeply #Religious #Christians -- 59% of #white #Catholics, 79% of #Evangelicals. Mind you, he's the least religious man at the White House in memory. Not enough for him electorally, though. washingtonpost.com/amphtml/news/t…

Asked if he's worried by x-#NationalSecurity adviser #Flynn's plea agreement and cooperation with special investigator #Mueller, Mr #Trump retorts: “No, I'm not [...] We're very happy." Aren't we all.

Britain First is a divisive, hateful group whose views are not in line with our values. UK has a proud history as an open, tolerant society & hate speech has no place here

#DonaldTrump is spinning out of control ever faster, ever farther. In the last few days he has been picking fights in a manic pace. Now it's #TheresaMay. Should one be surprised? Yes, for he's shedding last vestiges of common sense essential for survival. bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-…

#Vietnam's ossified #oligarchs dread #FreeSpeech and accountability. Which is why they torment #NguyenVanHoa, the daring boyish-looking #blogger who risked his life to tell truth about the ties that bind a corrupt #communist elite and foreign exploiters. nyti.ms/2ia5nQr

#GarrisonKeillor, one of the greatest American #radio personalities of our time has been felled by sexual urges. But hasn't #MinnesotaPublicRadio gone far too far in removing all traces of him? Turning him into a #nonperson in a new #SovietEncyclopedia? mpr.org/press/2017/11/…

Haven't been there yet. Coming to a political theater near you: the _non_-#PenisEnvy. A candidate for office in #Michigan thinks she deserves to be elected because she has no penis, hence could not expose it. Really? What else doesn't she have?

The #Millennials are sick and tired of the #Republican-#Democratic #duopoly. A remarkable 71% seek a viable #ThirdParty, a notion which has eluded American #politics since the 1850's. One may safely assume that the omnipotently impotent duopoly will resist
